  • the amount of pressure may vary depending on the material employed in container member 12 , as well as the temperature of the mandrel 90 over bag member 14 .
  • the pressure and time of application is sufficient, however, to cause container member 12 to intimately conform to the shape of mandrel 90 and to bond bag member 14 to at least a portion of the interior surfaces of container member 12 .
  • the temperature of mandrel 90 is about 200° F. to about 450° F., preferably about 250° F. to about 425° F., more preferably about 300° F.
